National School Walkout

Posted on March 14, 2018 by SouthernGirl2

It’s been exactly one month since the deadly shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School — and some are choosing a somber way to pay tribute to the 17 people killed in the Parkland massacre.

Thousands of students and teachers are planning to walk out of their classrooms on Wednesday, March 14 as part of the the #Enough! National School Walkout to raise awareness about issues of school safety and the impact of gun violence. The nationwide march, organized by Women’s March Youth Empower, will happen at 10 a.m. and last 17 minutes.

The nationwide protest is both a memorial and protest action. Students and teachers across the United States will walk out of their schools and universities to honor the lives of the 17 people killed at Stoneman Douglas and press lawmakers to pass stricter gun control laws, according to EMPOWER, the group organizing the action.

Among their demands, participants want Congress to:

Ban assault weapons
Require universal background checks before gun sales
Pass a gun violence restraining order law that would allow courts to disarm people who display warning signs of violent behavior

Mt. Diablo HS principal Lorne Barbosa said he was not opposed to students participating in protests, but after the student government decided not to do a walkout, the school was not expecting a march. So he locked the gates because parents might not want students leaving campus. pic.twitter.com/2nrKEUr2LJ

Assault weapons regardless of origin, make or model should be permanently banned for civilian use. They should be issued only to military personnel & law enforcement. They are weapons of mass destruction & were created for one purpose: to kill. Society is better off without them!
